Reviews5 Mics (out of 5) - "...Aquemini is a brilliant record....Throughout the record Dre and Big Boi showcase their verbal trademark--cool, staccato flows steeped in the everyday slanguage of the Deep South...", Included in Rolling Stone's "Essential Recordings of the 90's.", 9 (out of 10) - "...OutKast understand the power of sound the way, say, Sly understood it on THERE'S A RIOT GOIN' ON or P-Funk did on `The Motor-Booty Affair,' and so they've crafted some of the most seductive and dreamadelic textures this side of, well, the last OutKast album...", 4 out of 5 - "...Infused with laid-back soul and a slow regional drawl....Thick with molasses-rich funk....hip hop for the heart, mind and soul...", Ranked #35 in Spin Magazine's "90 Greatest Albums of the '90s.", 4 stars out of 5 - "...Sweet, soul-soaked samples, a whole heap of bottom and quicksilver staccato rhyming....There's some fantastic material here but hwta makes it even more impressive is the way it's worked together...", 5 stars out of 5 - "...Their 3rd and best offering....Breathtaking in its ambition, it makes most rappers seem drab and doltish in comparison...", "Spotlighting equally the talents of Dre and Big Boi may be the key to their artistic transcendence. They also rip the rap envelope by trading samples for distinctive instruments like Kalimba and harmonica (a la Earth, Wind & Fire and Curtis Mayfield)..." - Rating: A, 5 (out of 5) - "...The beauty of Outkast is that they constantly reinvent themselves....AQUEMINI continues Outkast's pied piper effect on society's outcasts...appealing to their commonalities and uniting them under one umbrella...", 4 Stars (out of 5) - "...Anything OutKast touch...sounds as though they took it for a spin through the cotton fields in their Caddy. Sporting plenty of live chops...and soulful harmonies, AQUEMINI's fresh, original feel defies rap's coastal cliches...", Ranked #9 in Vibe's "Top 10 Rap Albums"-"...Their Crowning Achievement (So Far) ...", 9 (out of 10) - "...OutKast understand the power of sound the way, say, Sly understood it on THERE'S A RIOT GOIN' ON or P-Funk did on `The Motor-Booty Affair,' and so they've crafrted some of the most seductive and dreamadelic textures this side of, well, the last OutKast album...", 4 stars out of 5 - "...An entirely convincing hip hop continuation of Parliament's prime late-'60s/early-'70s LPs....Cosmic and encompassing; sprawling and superb...", Ranked #3 on Spin's List of "Top 20 Albums of '98."
